When Dave leaves home for a training convention, he leaves with a storm raging outside of his home, and a storm raging inside the life of his marriage. While on his trip, he picks up Pam in that storm, and the storms get continuously worse. Because of her, his life changes completely.

Someone is trying to kill Pam, and because she is with Dave, he becomes a target. They find themselves running from the killers, the locals, and the law. It is only after they reach the fortune teller's house that they find out why it is all happening.

Dave's whole belief system is shaken as he endures one life threatening storm after another. In the beginning Dave was naive about good and evil. In the end, he gains first hand knowledge of both.
